This saw is designed for cutting builders timber.  It has a tooth style which is very aggressive and will cut very fast.  It has a hollow ground blade, which reduces friction when cutting.  This also allows the cutting stroke to feel very easy and fast. 

The teeth are set, they are what Silky call a 4 Retsume tooth style.  This saw has four rows of teeth going through the timber with each stroke.  This style of tooth also cuts a larger hole in the timber than the width of the blade, therefore reducing the chance of the blade jamming in the cut. 

The blades are made out of a strong high quality steel.  This steel is very strong, but is also quite flexible, which is very important in a hand saw.  The blades are also coated to give them some protection from rust and resin.  The handles are made out of a special rubber designed by Silky Japan.  It is called GOM and it is extremely comfortable to hold.  It absorbs a lot of the vibrations you get when cutting and allows you to have a very good grip, even when your hands are damp.  All parts are replaceable, so if you lose anything you can order replacement parts, i.e. screws, blades, handles, scabbards.  This hand saw comes in three blade lengths, 240, 270 and 300mm.
